She’ll be enjoying her day off (hooky is more of the appropriate term) and spending it at a pool. . . catching some needed sun.

“If my opinion means anything to you, Barry — I do believe you 𝙗𝙤𝙩𝙝 are very much prepared for this level of commitment. Look. . . I get this is a huge step and there’s still lots to take in from it — but if you don’t pull yourself together and marry that girl. . . then ~~

It’s /this/ sort of reassurance that
he needed, especially the most in
this current moment —— it’s such
a big step, for him, for Iris. He just
doesn’t want to seem like he’s in
a rush, ironically. Ever since he »

Time are you asking for? You guys were raised together since childhood. . . shouldn’t that be enough confirmation she’s your one and only. . . your true soulmate? You’ve been through so much together. The good and the bad. . . and she still is standing by your side. That goes ~~

@VoltageSpeeder Be her fourth cup of coffee since this morning. . . or fifth. . . she lost count after the first two. She was high on caffeine — and the sugar crash that resulted from it was the source of her falling asleep in the office.

[𝙁𝙀𝙇𝙄𝘾𝙄𝙏𝙔 𝙎𝙈𝙊𝘼𝙆 @WinsomeBlithe]

Feet planted on the smooth surface of the desk — her body resting on the leather chair, arms folded across her chest and head hanging at an awkward angle. That was the position she was resting in — and it had been minutes (or perhaps hours) since she had fallen to a deep ~~

That’s —— not the welcoming he
had in mind when deciding to pay
her a visit. Although, the sound of
soft snoring speaks for itself. He’s
just going to. . . take a seat, quietly.

[𝙁𝙀𝙇𝙄𝘾𝙄𝙏𝙔 𝙎𝙈𝙊𝘼𝙆 @WinsomeBlithe]

@VoltageSpeeder Can’t make much of a promise on resting when there’s a madman on the loose. . .”

She stood up, sauntering over to the coffee machine that was on the other side of the office, head turning to the side to look back at him.
“Want a cup coffee? t’s my treat. . .”

This would ~~

Just know from an outside perspective — I think you’re ready. And she is just as ready — maybe even waiting for you to ask her already — but that’s just my opinion.”

[𝙁𝙀𝙇𝙄𝘾𝙄𝙏𝙔 𝙎𝙈𝙊𝘼𝙆 @WinsomeBlithe]

The blonde is cocking her head slightly to the side — eyelids narrowing to short slits, arms folding across her chest — not responding to his small outburst. He was nervous, the blonde can easily detect it through his movements and the way he was speaking about this new ~~

“It’s a nerve racking thing!”

Barry yelled, lightly. His words in a
higher pitch. Was he ( truly ) afraid
Who isn’t when it comes to taking
that next big step? It’s not him being
afraid —— it’s more of him feeling
like he’s rushing things, ironic for »

Love completely. Time isn’t relevant here — you guys have been together for years. All that matters is that you both express your love in another way — and that will happen once you pop that question. All in good pace though. I’m not holding a gun against your head. Just... ~~

The blonde could practically envision her best friends sealing the love they have for each other in holy matrimony — and although fairy tale endings would never be a part of her own life due to incessant destruction in her path — she was a devout follower in their love story. ~~

[𝘔𝘙. 𝘈𝘓𝘓𝘌𝘕 @VoltageSpeeder]

Was that the reaction he expected?
It was just was he expected, it’s no
word of a lie —— lips tugged at the
corners, at a wider frame. As the
level of joy, excitement from Felicity
spoke for itself. It’s a step that he’s
thinking about, quite recently in »

Is afraid?? I must be in some alternate universe — there should be no other reason than that one that makes sense.
What’s truly holding you back? And don’t say that it’s about the price of the engagement rings — I’m sure you can buy any size diamond and Iris would still be ~~
